What file contains the list of port numbers (and associated names) monitored by inetd ?

Correct answer: A. /etc/services

  • A. /etc/services
  • B. /etc/nsorder
  • C. /etc/nsswitch.conf/
  • D. /etc/hosts

Explanation

`/etc/services` maps service names such as HTTP and FTP to their port numbers and protocols, and inetd uses this information. The other files store host or name-service configuration rather than the standard service-port list.
